Hi guys. Thought I'd post to get some advice. I'm really unsure about this...
Someone local posted an adorable snow corn snake she wants to sell for $40 with a tank included. Now, the pics she sent me weren't very good. The tank doesn't look appropriate. There doesn't seem to be any good hides and it seems pretty dirty. There's shed skin left there. The snake is supposedly 18 months old and looks pretty skinny. Apparently her son had the snake and he moved out and didn't want to take it with him. I think she just wants rid of him so she doesn't have to 'take care' of him anymore.
I'd love to rescue this snake and bring him back to health. I've been looking for a corn anyway... but I'm worried about diseases. I have 2 ball pythons and if they got any type of disease, I'd be heartbroken. I was planning on quarantining in another room but I don't know if that's enough and I'm not experienced enough to tell if the snake has a disease from looking at it in person.
I'll attach the pics, but they aren't that great. He looks so skinny and has stuck shed all over him. Poor thing
